Easy communication, on time pick up with comfortable car. Driver was drove safely. Our guide Dr Michael was very nice and knowledgeable. He kindly treated us to local breakfast on the way to Denderah. Michael took his time explaining the important parts of the temples and we also had plenty of time to explore alone. We never felt rushed and return around 5pm. Thank you Muchael, the driver and Emo tours.
Bahgat was my tour guide for this tour and he was amazing, very knowledgeable and professional. This tour of Dendara and Abydos is a must see as it takes you to temples beyond Luxor - truly a hidden gem!
Two well preserved and colourful temples and a nice lunch. Ash the guide and our driver were professional and friendly.
Had a great time on our tour yesterday. Big thanks to our tour guide Mohammed and his driver. Not only was Mohammed very knowledgeable and friendly, but he also played some great music (at our request) which made the long drive to Dendara an absolute experience in itself. Thank you for a brilliant day!
The start time was changed from 07.00 to 06.00. This was OK, but the pickup still arrived at 07.00? The tour guide was knowledgeable. By the time we bypassed most police checkpoints and not counting the lost hour, the tour was over 12 hours. Too long.
Got messed around by the company, they advertise this as an 8hr tour, it's not it's 10hrs minimum. We cut out Abydos and our guide took us to another temple in Luxxor instead. Guide and driver were fantastic. Check out time of drive before booking tours, Google maps is not accurate, read other reviews.
